7. If you choose to forgive them, do it for yourself
If you choose to forgive your partner, understand that you’re not doing it for them, but rather for yourself because you love them and want them in your life. And even though they might need your forgiveness, you shouldn’t concentrate on that.
You should focus on yourself instead, and make sure you’re well and happy with your decision. It’s important to forgive and move on for your own well-being, and learning to let go of the past will help you heal faster.
Try to leave everything in the past, even though it won’t be easy. You can’t forgive someone if their affair keeps leaving rent-free in your head. Try to focus on the future you two are going to have together, and leave the past behind.
Also, try to avoid mentioning adultery in future couple fights, because it will mean that you never forgave them and both of you will be unhappy.
